Translator:Sparrow TranslationsEditor:Sparrow Translations
The next day.
The news was out and it was causing a huge stir.
The netizens couldnt believe what they saw.
There are prohibited ingredients in the Grand Ocean Hotel scallion pancakes that cause addiction?
When they saw the news, the netizens were dumbfounded. Right after they had praised Grand Ocean Hotel, it got struck by such a disaster and got completely wiped out. It all happened way too quickly.
Those who took joy in others misfortune kept quiet.
They felt as if they had been painfully slapped in the face.
Haha! This is killing me! Where are those people who were boasting about Grand Ocean? Please, carry on boasting.
This is way too terrifying!
For something like this to happen in such a big hotel
Scary. Terrifying.
We finally know why Master Lin didnt care at all. He never even saw Grand Ocean Hotel as a worthy competitor!
Whos near Master Lins place? Quick, go and take a picture of the current situation. I want to see just how many shameless people are back.
I stay at the block just opposite. Ill go take a look.
At Cloud Street.
Master Lin.
Lin Fan was just sitting in the shop, playing with his phone. His Weibo was peaceful once again. There was no sign of the Flame War Emperor. It appeared as if some tragic event had happened in his life, causing him to lose his spirit.
Fraud Tian stood next to Lin Fan and said, Hehe, it seems that there are many more residents queuing today than previously. However, all of them are wearing masks. Could it be that theres haze in Shanghai?
Lin Fan laughed, What the heck are you saying? Why dont you hurry and give out the number tags?
Roger! Fraud Tian was in a good mood. It was quite pleasing to see all those residents back. They even said just a few days ago that they wouldnt be coming anymore, but now, all of them were queuing up properly.
Among the residents.
The residents who had stuck by Master Lin all the way started talking eccentrically.
Hey, did the sunrise from the West today? Why are there so many people today? There were only about ten people yesterday, how could this be? And theyre wearing masks too! They must think that we cant recognize them.
Didnt they say that Grand Ocean Hotels scallion pancakes are better than Master Lins? And that they would never buy from here again?
Those residents wearing masks laughed awkwardly, then took off their masks.
It was all a misunderstanding. We were just affected by the drugs and got addicted.
The residents all laughed. They werent trying to blame anyone. They just wanted to tease them a little bit.
After the Grand Ocean scallion pancake incident, the number of people queuing increased instead of decreasing.
The owners of the surrounding shops stood outside their shops. As they looked at the scene, they were delighted. Their source of customers was back once again. Master Lin was really amazing. This, they had to admit.
Fraud Tian gave out the number tags.
Lin Fan announced the chosen numbers.
Those residents who were chosen got very emotional. Those who didnt get chosen still stayed.
Lin Fan stood in front of his stall and skillfully made his delicious scallion pancakes, one after another.
Master Lin, dont be angry. We were just tricked by them.
Some of the residents started to explain themselves to Lin Fan. They felt like they had let down Master Lin. After being seduced by those scallion pancakes, they actually spoke badly of Master Lin. When they thought about it, they were filled with regret.
The residents were afraid that Master Lin might have a grudge against them, however, Lin Fan could honestly tell them that they were just overthinking. Even if there were no customers at all, he wouldnt have minded it, he might even have been relieved.
But he never would have thought that these residents were so shameless to just return as if nothing had happened right after they had been cheated.
Even so, he was just selling ten servings of scallion pancakes a day, so it wouldnt have mattered even if more people came.
Lin Fan flashed a smile at the crowd to show that he wasnt bothered by it.
As for the Grand Ocean Hotel incident, he didnt take it to heart at all. When he looked at Chief Zhang, he could tell that he would be imprisoned, but not for too long of a time. The man had many ways of thinking and many schemes, but if he had known about the prohibited ingredients in the scallion pancakes, he would never have carried on selling them even if he was beaten to death.
The final outcome was just a little lesson for him.
Fraud Tian stood at the entrance and gazed into the distance as if he was thinking of something, but was uncertain.
Lin Fan asked, What are you looking at? Youre looking so intently.
Fraud Tian shook his head, No, look at that building over there. Is that a piece of cured meat hanging there or a child? Its too far, I cant tell for sure.
Really? Lin Fan raised his head and looked. He wasnt sure either, but it looked like that figure was swinging.
The townsfolk who were buying scallion pancakes looked as well.
Hey, it looks like a child.
Thats not right, its probably a piece of cured meat. It looks pretty big.
Do you make your cured meat in the Summer? Its so hot, wont it rot?
If it isnt cured meat, then
Just as the residents were discussing, the sirens of an ambulance could be heard, then, the sirens of a police car.
One of the residents exclaimed, Thats a child! A child fell down there!
Then, the residents all cried out in shock.
Go take a look and see whats going on!
Oh no, if its a child, it would be terrible.
Yeah, the ambulance and the police car are here. Something big must have happened.
People generally have curious hearts. When they see something that intrigues them, they will all go and take a look.
Lin Fan took a glance, then put his teacup down. He said, Im going to go take a look. You guys watch the shop.
Okay okay Fraud Tian was still staring blankly at the building.
There were several thirty-something-storied apartment buildings around Cloud Street. If the child was hanging from there, it would be really terrifying.
Upon reaching the building.
The ground floor of the building was already surrounded by a large crowd.
The residents looked upwards, pointing and speaking the local Shanghai dialect. Lin Fan didnt understand their words, but he could roughly understand their meaning. It was truly a scary situation.
Why isnt 119 here yet?
The ambulance and police car have reached, but theyre still not here.
At that moment, a young lady with a frantic expression on her face shrieked miserably, Hurry up and save my child
Where are they.
The young lady was so anxious that her entire body was trembling.
He fell from the twenty-eighth floor and his head got stuck on the window grills on the twenty-sixth floor. Right now, the owner of the twenty-sixth-floor apartment isnt around.
Its not just the twenty-sixth floor, even the twenty-fifth and twenty-seventh floors have no one around.
If hes not rescued soon, the child might be choked to death!
It seems that the mother came downstairs to take out the garbage, but she never expected something like this to happen.
The residents downstairs were all anxious as well, but it seemed like there was no solution to the current situation.
The fire engine is stuck in a traffic jam! Its still not here!
The owner of the twenty-sixth-floor apartment is at work. Theyve already given him a call and hes rushing back right now, but I dont know if he can make it in time.
Quick, go and take a look! Check if the door on the twenty-seventh floor has been opened yet.
When the childs mother heard this, she ran into the building immediately. She was scared out of her wits and she had lost her ability to think clearly.
Lin Fan felt that since he had come across this situation, he had to go take a look.
